Massive ActiveStor Deployment at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory

Admin

With nearly 8.5 petabytes of ActiveStor storage, the Panasas installation at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) represents one of the largest multi-location, high-performance computing (HPC) storage deployments in Great Britain. Panasas ActiveStor gives RAL a solution that offers extreme scalability and simple storage management capabilities so that scientists can focus on important research, not on cumbersome system administration. RAL won the “Public Sector Storage Project of the Year” award for its work done with Panasas ActiveStor at last month’s Storage Virtualization and Cloud Computing (SVC) Awards in London.
